About those big blocks on the screen - I read over at NeoGAF that during the demo of an early TOCA game, these large blocks replaced the rain that hadn't been implemented into the demo.

Unless that person is lying, I think that those blocks is weather in its early stages.

So because it happened in another game, made by a whole different dev, it must be correct with PD?
 
It's just the tour.

The interview is next (in 30 minutes I think).

Unless you can come up with a better reason for all of the blocks on the screen, I can't see your logic behind disproving it.

I didn't say it was conclusive evidence; it's just a possible explanation.

This will take all day, but those pictures are making the wait worth while. I was kinda mad about the game taking so long, but the goodies keep coming, so it is a little less disturbing waiting until next year.
 
look on the upper right... Is that an hint? :)

EDIT: There are bigger screens on page 9... So thats a porsche?

Wait WHAT is with the video, is another one to be posted after this? It's just some guy walking around PD and did not ask Yamauchi any questions. :/

Edit - I skipped through the video however did not see any questions asked. Terrible sorry if I jumped the gun.
 
J/K... PD's "bullshots" are better than T10's "bullshots". /fanboyism... seriously though those are some freakin amazing shots.
 
The interview is to be posted after the two videos ;)

At 2:45 the guy says "GT5 will be released in March '10 in Japan and a bit later in Europe"
 
If you can't make out the french, try this from Joystiq:

Sony announced a March release for Gran Turismo 5 at Tokyo Game Show last week, a release window that was specifically targeted for the Japanese market. However, don't expect a surprise 2009 release (sorry Amazon!). "I don't think it's going to be that different for US and Europe," Polyphony Digital head Kazunori Yamauchi told journalists at a GT5 event last week. "Marketing is still discussing their issues," which is the reason why a specific date hasn't been pegged yet for those markets.

Yamauchi then went on to list a befuddling list of features that should ship on the disc next year. GT Mode will return with all the features of classic GT games, like the garage, the car dealer, the tuning shop, and license tests. However, more exciting are the new features, such as a brand-new physics model that includes damage and deformation for all normal cars. Hybrid and electric cars are going to be added to the livery, too, with over 950 cars available on the disc. There will also be over 70 variations of over 20 locations to race through.

The online features have been expanded to include both text and voice chat, with support for lobbies and private rooms. There will also be online photo albums and online replay albums, with the ability to export replays to YouTube. Gran Turismo TV, the video service introduced in Gran Turismo 5 Prologue will also be expanded with a brand new UI, progressive downloading (so you can watch the video content while it downloads), and the ability to export these videos to PSP. While this may seem like the kitchen sink of features, Yamauchi then teased that "we have much more planned." Considering it's been five years since the release of Gran Turismo 4 on PS2, fans of the franchise are expecting only the best, if not more. Will Polyphony Digital be able to deliver upon such staggering expectations?

I got some things from that nice french tour around the studio:
- They've got the biggest servers in Japan
- They are working on faces
- And they are working a that new game Omega(?)
 
Those blocks on the TV are not different weather, just when you make a photo or vid of those screens, you see them.

Later in Japanesse is the equivalent of 6 months so expect GT5 to come out at Sep 2010 :dunce:

I don't see them when I take a photo of my Sony Bravia (LCD) or my LCD monitor.

And still with the 20 locations, 70 variatons.
Just say 70 tracks dammit!!!
